The latest news about the war was rapidly spreading back to the capital cities of Qian Country and Liang Country.
After returning to Nanping City, Yi Fei had ordered the lockdown of South City gate. All soldiers were on standby, prepared to respond to Qian Country's counterattack while awaiting new instructions from the court.
Yi Fei, who had used Peng Wei to stage a drama and was slapped angrily by Peng Qian in public, did not arouse suspicion from Liang Country. Although many people mocked Yi Fei and his son's actions behind their backs, others suspected that the Peng Family had long been spies for Qian Country. They believed there was nothing wrong in using Peng Wei to exchange for Yi Fei's return, and even suggested capturing Peng Qian to prevent him from causing any more trouble.
